Sims v. United States

Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN

DAEMONTE SIMS,

Plaintiff, OPINION and ORDER v.

24-cv-909-jdp UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Defendant.

Plaintiff Daemonte Sims, proceeding without counsel, alleges that when he was incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution in Oxford, Wisconsin, medical staff negligently treated his knee injury. I screened Sims’s complaint and concluded that it didn’t properly state any claim for relief. Dkt. 17. I gave Sims a chance to submit an amended complaint fixing his pleading problems. Id. Sims has not responded to my order, so I will dismiss this case with prejudice. See Paul v. Marberry, 658 F.3d 702, 704–05 (7th Cir. 2011) (court should dismiss case for failure to state a claim after plaintiff fails to correct a pleading that violates Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8). ORDER IT IS ORDERED that: 1. This case is DISMISSED with prejudice for plaintiff’s failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. 2. The clerk of court is directed to enter judgment and close the case. Entered September 22, 2025. BY THE COURT:
